review
PORTRAIT IN JAZZ introduced the justly acclaimed Bill Evans Trio, the innovative little group featuring bassist Scott LaFaro and drummer Paul Motian that would forever change standards of jazz playing, introducing a new kind of swing based on a flexible sense of time and interplay. Evans had already established himself on EVERYBODY DIGS BILL EVANS and, of course, the Miles landmark KIND OF BLUE. Now it was time to share the wealth.
PORTRAIT IN JAZZ represents the beginning of this process, which wouldn't see full flower till the freewheeling Village Vanguard sessions more than a year later. In the meantime there are energetically abstract takes on "Come Rain Or Come Shine" and "What Is This Thing Called Love?" as well as two equally fine takes of "Autumn Leaves"--one is a CD bonus track--on which Evans swings his heart out. The disc closes with two takes of the delicately somber "Blue In Green," a collaboration with Miles also featured on KIND OF BLUE and a welcome reminder of Evan's considerable skills as a composer.
Down Beat (1960) - 5 Stars - Excellent - "..If there's any doubt that Evans is one of the freshest things to happen to the piano in the last few years, this album should dispel any such feelings...Here is an album with meaning--here is truth.."
Jazziz (1/95, p.89) - "...Evans was a one-of-a kind musician who took standards and made them his own...There is more feeling in that unmistakable Evans style than in any of the myriad technical doo-dad oriented players we get saddled with today..."
My friend, circumstances that do not write well in English, we uploader use program EAC to compress by original CD in lossless flac. Flac image format is the best because using the file .cue for burn a cd the same as the original.To listen the flac track I use Foobar2000 it is an free software, bat there is a plugin for winamp to listen flac file. For burn the image file .flac use freeware software called Burrrn, download it by the network link http://www.burrrn.net/?page_id=6 , install it, open the folder where there are the file .cue and .flac, open Burrrn drag and drop the file.cue in the program window, you will see all files with all the information and clicking on the button Burrrn after you burn a cd equal to the original.
